We haven’t had any real success stories in last 20 years of bringing in old players who in prime were quality.
Just off top of my head (and sure folk can add loads more)
Cole
Greening
Nicky southall (although had one good season)
Eaden
Lennon
Ian Wright
Two of the Italians in Platts era.
Boateng
Will say des Walker when he returned and Beasant still one of the best keepers we’ve had and he was nearly 40 . Murphy still on fence but he has scored goals and got 2 already this year, and Dawson doesn’t seem to be making a mark
Defoe defo short and short term signing and selling Brereton could be one to come back and bite us .
Majority of Karankas signing are based on here and now, mixture of loans and older players.
The way I see it if we don’t go up it’s going to mean another big spend next year
